Introduction

A survey conducted by Citibank in 2009 and published in Berita Harian indicated that an average of only two out of five individuals or 39% of Malaysians save their money. Similarly, less than one out of three individuals or 28% of Malaysians plan their monthly budget and stick to it.

These findings clearly prove that public awareness on financial planning is still at an alarmingly low stage. Knowledge on financial planning and smart investing is important and useful for working executives. With the right financial planning skills, working individuals will be able to manage their income better and enjoy a more stable lifestyle.
